A book distribution initiative for a remote village in Rolpa, Nepal
Ek Ghar Ek Kitab
The aim is to provide books to a remote village in Rolpa.
- A unique book for each household.
- The exchange of books will be prioritized once the students have finished reading the book they received during the distribution.
- a village with 100 households will have 100 different books, for example. a person should easily be able to read more than 5 books a year through exchanges.
- If nobody in a household has started reading the book and a person from another household has finished the originally given book, the person who completed the book should be entitled to an exchange.
- The database of books and their initial recipients can be published, but there is no need to keep it updated. ### Genres and Scope of Books
- a mix of non-fiction and fiction, maybe 80:20.
- translated and original Nepali works, with maybe 10-20% English books.
- The target audience is students in grades 5 to 10.
